#247 | MATRESCENCE PARTNER SERIES | WHAT DADS ARE REALLY FEELING | WITH STEVEN KENNEDY

The Happy Mama Movement with Amy Taylor-Kabbaz

Welcome, beautiful souls, to a heart-opening episode of "The Happy Mama Movement Podcast."

For years, I have been asked: but what about the Dads?

Do the non-birthing partners go through a similar identity shift?

Is there something called Patrescence?

And... how can I talk to my partner about this, and understand what they are going through too?

Welcome to our special Matrescence Partner Series!

In this series, I have spoken with three different experts about the experience of becoming a parent, watching your partner experience matrescence, and how parenting changes the partner.

Today, we embark on a deeply insightful conversation with a trailblazer in the realm of fatherhood—Steven Kennedy, the Founder of Birthing Dads Australia.

In this episode, we peel back the layers of societal expectations surrounding fatherhood and dive into the transformative journey that awaits dads during the birth of their children. Steven, with his wealth of experience and passion, has been on a mission to redefine the role of fathers during this sacred and pivotal time.

Birthing Dads Australia is not just an organization; it's a movement—a movement that encourages fathers to step into their power, providing invaluable support and guidance as they navigate the emotional and transformative landscape of birth and early fatherhood.

As Steven shares his own personal journey and the stories of countless fathers he's worked with, we explore the profound impact that involved and present fathers can have on the entire family unit. It's a shift from the traditional bystander role to one of active participation, nurturing, and connection.

Join us as we delve into the importance of acknowledging and embracing the emotional aspects of becoming a dad, the vital role of communication within partnerships, and how fathers can cultivate a strong foundation for their growing families.
